Comparing Projects

Visualize differences between two projects using NI Compare.

Compare two projects to see if a collaborator has modified, added, or removed a file.
Note If you store your projects in a source code control repository, you can configure the source control provider to launch NI Compare for files with a .lvproject file extension.

Complete the following steps to compare two project files using NI Compare:

  1. Open a project.
  2. On the Navigation pane, right-click the project and select Open in NI Compare.
  3. On the right side of the NI Compare window, click Browse to select the project file you want to compare.
